BIBLIOGRAPHY

Many high quality monographs cover the material of this course and go well beyond. Here is a short selection:

- the classics:

K. Yosida, Functional Analysis, 6th edition, Springer 1980

Kolmogorov e Fomin, Elements of the Theory of Functions and Functional Analysis, Dover 1961

Kantorovitch e Akylov, Functional Analysis, Pergamon 1982

H. Brézis, Analyse Fonctionnelle, théorie et applications, Masson 1983 Martin Schechter, Principles of Functional Analysis, second edition, AMS 2002.

- some more recent and very interesting editions:

W. Cheney, Analysis for Applied Mathematics, Springer 2001

M. Willem, Principes d’Analyse Fonctionnelle, Cassini 2007

In addition there exists excellent material available online. I shall mention the course of Buhler and Salamon (ETH Zurich, 2016), the one by Alan Sokal (UCL 2013), the one by Michael M. Wolf (Munich 2015), and the one of MIT.
